Purple fruits, dark leaves and a compact habit make it as striking in a pot as it is merciless in a sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHeat and flavour\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eWith a heat level of \u003cstrong\u003e800,000 - 1,500,000 SHU\u003c\/strong\u003e, Purple Death ranks among the very hottest peppers: that is three to six times hotter than a habanero, while the upper end of the range approaches Carolina Reaper. The range is due to the variety's young age and variation between plants, which is typical of new hybrids. The heat is deep and long-lasting, as in both parents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFruits and plant appearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThe pods of \u003cstrong style=\"color:#656B39;\"\u003e'Purple Death'\u003c\/strong\u003e are thin-walled and wrinkled, measuring about \u003cstrong\u003e4 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e in length. Immature pods are deep purple, then ripen to orange-red or red. The entire plant is adorned with dark, purple-tinged foliage - even without fruit, it looks extraordinary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThe bush is bushy and compact: it reaches \u003cstrong\u003e75-105 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e in the ground and about \u003cstrong\u003e70 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e in a pot. Heavy fruiting makes it worth providing support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOrigin and history\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003ePurple Death was developed in Italy around 2019 by breeder Giancarlo Fadda, who crossed 7 Pot Primo - one of the hottest peppers from Trinidad - with a purple mutation of Bhut Jolokia. The result is a young hybrid that may still show some variation between plants, but in return offers an extraordinary combination of extreme heat and purple colouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing requirements in a temperate climate\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eFor a superhot pepper, Purple Death is unusually adaptable: it also grows well in cooler climates, and \u003cstrong\u003e96-120 days or more\u003c\/strong\u003e pass from planting out to harvest. In Europe's temperate climate, it will thrive on a sunny balcony, in a greenhouse or in a sheltered spot in the ground. For container cultivation, a pot with a capacity of at least 2 litres is sufficient, although a larger pot will produce a more vigorous plant. The bush can be overwintered in a bright, cool room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCulinary uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThis variety is intended for extremely hot sauces - one pod is enough for a large batch. Because of their thin walls, the fruits dry easily and can be ground into a potent powder. Purple Death is also valued as a collector's and ornamental plant: purple pods against dark leaves are a sight that leads many growers to choose it regardless of culinary use. Wear gloves when processing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mr.seed","offers":[{"title":"5","offer_id":54169350766920,"sku":"2836","price":18.9,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":54169350799688,"sku":"2837","price":36.4,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"50","offer_id":54169350832456,"sku":"2838","price":161.4,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"100","offer_id":54169350865224,"sku":"2839","price":269.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/2649\/0440\/files\/papryka-purple-death-1.jpg?v=1790705096","url":"https:\/\/www.mrseed.eu\/en\/products\/nasiona-papryki-purple-death","provider":"mr.seed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
